Let $H$ be a set of regular cardinals: by using our results about well-ordered $\\lambda$-full sets we show that if $\\inf H$ is a weakly compact cardinal, then, for every LOTS $X$, $H$-compactness is equivalent to the nonexistence of gaps of types in $H$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-03-23T18:17:46.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "weakly compact cardinal", "full well-ordered sets", "appropriate regular cardinality", "regular cardinals", "transfinite recursion" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
